portunity to formally insist upon sep
aration. Accordingly, yesterday morn
ing Mrs. Bulkley met her young
husband at the Office of his attorney, Judge
Cody. 1t was the first time they had seen
each other since the marriage ceremony
was performed. They rushed into each
others arms, and the girl declared she
would not be parted from her husband.
Judge Hillyer's counsel at once directed
that the suit for an annulment of the mar
riage contract be dismissed, and the wife
left the lawyers office with her husband for
his home.
Judge Hillyer, when he heard of his
daughters decision, expressed himself with
much bitterness. Mrs. Hillyer has been
made seriously i'll by the affair. Ultimately,
however, it is believed both families will
be reconciled to the match.
